him better than Marty Fallon, his trainer. Fallon, who used to be a jock- ey-he rode Take Away in the first race he won-has always handled HIllsdale. In fact, when C. W. Smith, a Detroit businessman bought the colt about a year ago, it was arranged that Fallon would continue to train him-a sort of package deal. It turned out to be a good one; Hillsdale cost only $25,000, and he has earned ten times that for his pres- ent owner. His share of the Maturity purse was $91,150 . There's gold in them Hillsdales, boys. The Maturity, which is Santa Anita's prize event for four-year-olds, was the first of many races with six-figure purses thIs season. I say "many" because I've really lost count of the exact number. Only the other day, Belmont's Metro- politan and Suburban Handicaps were moved up into that lush bracket. (I re- member that when Mr Khayyam won the l\IIetropolitan in 1934, after Equi- poise had finished first and been dis- qualified, his share of the purse was $3,480. Fourth money is more than that nowadays.) Hollywood Park an- nounced the other day that it would put on a new race this summer, the Juvenile Championship Stakes, with a gross value of maybe $150,000. The antes are go- ing up everywhere. O NE of this department's Florida outriders reports that the running of the Bougainvillea Handicap over the turf course at Hialeah last weekend was the merriest whoop-de-do affair he's seen in a month of Sundays. Fourteen horses ran-all that the course was wide enough for-and they went bumpety- bump from start to finish. The WInner turned up in General Arthur. He likes to run along the rails (that's the short- est way home, after all), and when the leaders swung wide at the turn into the stretch, he was home free indeed, lead- ing the Hasty House Farm pair, Ekaba and Mahan, by about a length. The big disappointment was Tudor Era, who seems to be under an unlucky star. Amerigo took him out as neatly as an All-America end might take out a halfback, and he finished eleventh Petare, the winner of the precedIng week's Royal Palm Handicap, was cut so badly that he may not race for weeks. HeIgh-ho, anything goes! -AuDAX MINOR . Washington talk is that the U.S. will safely shoot a man at least 50 miles into space and return him before \\7inter ends. -Danton lfT alker In the News.
